Made the Grog Log/Remixed version of the Shrunken Skull the other night and didn't care too much for it. Used homemade grenadine that was equal parts Pom juice and sugar with a couple drops of orange blossom water added and Hamilton Demerara and Flor de Cana gold for my rums. The grenadine and lime seemed to have completely overpowered the rums which didn't come through at all. So then tried the Atomic Grog version which only adds 1/2 oz cinnamon syrup (homemade per Berry's recommendation) and LH151 in place of the 86 proof Hamilton. Boy what a difference. After a few pulse blends I stirred in the shot of 151 with a cinnamon stick and every sip unleashed more and more flavor. This is definitely one I will be playing with some more in the future, maybe replacing the Flor de Cana with something a little more interesting.
